A Cloud-Based Testbed of AI Predictive Maintenance for Air Handling Units

I&T Solution A Cloud-Based Testbed of AI Predictive Maintenance for Air Handling Units
(REF: S-1629)
Trial Project
Solution Feature
  • The whole system contains a Signal Collection of motor, fans, rubber belt and outlet parameters; Data Transfer from edge device to server; Data Preprocessing like wavelet analysis; AI model Predictions and Dashboards for the operator
  • The raw data is measured by various sensors. Including current, voltage, shaft vibration, temperature of shaft/stator, velocity and stator vibration of the motor; velocity, vibration and temperature of the fan axle; temperature and vibration velocity of the rubber belt; air velocity, air pressure difference of the outlet
  • After sensors are installed, raw data will be collected and preprocessed by traditional electrical engineering methods, such as wave packet analysis. The clean data will be stored for AI model training. A custom designed AI model will be trained on the daily raw data
  • As there won’t be enough failures to train the AI model. System failures will be deliberately produced under typical scenarios, such as bearing wear, rubber belt ageing, fan wear, etc. Trained by those data, the AI model will achieve the ability of failure prediction
  • The AI model will be deployed on the cloud or the edge device. After receiving cleaned data, a real-time failure prediction analysis will be shown on the dashboard. An alarm will be raised if any unusual issue happens
Trial Application and Expected Outcome
  • All the raw data coming from sensors will be verified after sensor installation. The sensors' output will significantly respond properly to the parameter change
  • The data streaming in the system will be verified via the edge device and cloud. The stability of the communication portal can be verified and tested
  • At least 3 major types of failures will be created deliberately. The data of each failure type will be collected for AI training. The data outcome related to the failure will be recorded for further usage
  • If the data quality is good enough, the AI performance of predictive maintenance may achieve precision 80%+ and recall 80%+ on the testing dataset
  • A one-month validation test will be done before the final report submission. The validation test result will be analyzed in the final report
